Each object maintains its own state information. =cut ##################################################################### # # Environment definitions # ##################################################################### package Curses::Widgets::TextField; use strict; use vars qw($VERSION @ISA); use Carp; use Curses; use Curses::Widgets; ($VERSION) = (q$Revision: 1.103 $ =~ /(\d+(?:\.(\d+))+)/); @ISA = qw(Curses::Widgets); ##################################################################### # # Module code follows # ##################################################################### =head1 METHODS =head2 new (inherited from Curses::Widgets) $tf = Curses::Widgets::TextField->new({ CAPTION => 'Name', CAPTIONCOL => 'yellow', COLUMNS => 10, MAXLENGTH => 255, MASK => undef, VALUE => '', INPUTFUNC => \&scankey, FOREGROUND => undef, BACKGROUND => 'black', BORDER => 1, BORDERCOL => 'red', FOCUSSWITCH => "\t\n", CURSORPOS => 0, TEXTSTART => 0, PASSWORD => 0, X => 1, Y => 1, READONLY => 0, }); The new method instantiates a new TextField object. The only mandatory key/value pairs in the configuration hash are B and B. All others have the following defaults: Key Default Description ============================================================ CAPTION undef Caption superimposed on border CAPTIONCOL undef Foreground colour for caption text COLUMNS 10 Number of columns displayed MAXLENGTH 255 Maximum string length allowed MASK undef Not yet implemented VALUE '' Current field text INPUTFUNC \&scankey Function to use to scan for keystrokes FOREGROUND undef Default foreground colour BACKGROUND undef Default background colour BORDER 1 Display a border around the field BORDERCOL undef Foreground colour for border FOCUSSWITCH "\t\n" Characters which signify end of input CURSORPOS 0 Starting position of the cursor TEXTSTART 0 Position in string to start displaying PASSWORD 0 Subsitutes '*' instead of characters READONLY 0 Prevents alteration to content The B is only valid when the B is enabled. If the border is disabled, the field will be underlined, provided the terminal supports it. If B is undefined, no limit will be placed on the string length. If B is true, the widget will be enlarged to three columns and two more columns to make room for the border. =cut sub _conf { # Validates and initialises the new TextField object. # # Usage: $self->_conf(%conf); my $self = shift; my %conf = ( CAPTION => undef, COLUMNS => 10, LINES => 1, MAXLENGTH => 255, MASK => undef, VALUE => '', INPUTFUNC => \&scankey, BORDER => 1, FOCUSSWITCH => "\t\n", CURSORPOS => 0, TEXTSTART => 0, PASSWORD => 0, READONLY => 0, @_ ); my @required = qw(X Y); my $err = 0; # Check for required arguments foreach (@required) { $err = 1 unless exists $conf{$_} }; # Make sure no errors are returned by the parent method $err = 1 unless $self->SUPER::_conf(%conf); return $err == 0 ? 1 : 0; } =head2 draw $tf->draw($mwh, 1); The draw method renders the text field in its current state. This requires a valid handle to a curses window in which it will render itself. The optional second argument, if true, will cause the field's text cursor to be rendered as well. =cut sub _content { my $self = shift; my $dwh = shift; my $cursor = shift; my $conf = $self->{CONF}; my ($pos, $ts, $value, $border, $col) = @$conf{qw(CURSORPOS TEXTSTART VALUE BORDER COLUMNS)}; my $seg; # Trim the value if it exceeds the maximum length $value = substr($value, 0, $$conf{MAXLENGTH}) if $$conf{MAXLENGTH}; # Turn on underlining (terminal-dependent) if no border is used $dwh->attron(A_UNDERLINE) unless $border; # Adjust the cursor position and text start if it's out of whack if ($pos > length($value)) { $pos = length($value); } elsif ($pos < 0) { $pos = 0; } if ($pos > $ts + $$conf{COLUMNS} - 1) { $ts = $pos + 1 - $$conf{COLUMNS}; } elsif ($pos < $ts) { $ts = $pos; } $ts = 0 if $ts < 0; # Write the widget value (adjusting for horizontal scrolling) $seg = substr($value, $ts, $$conf{COLUMNS}); $seg = '*' x length($seg) if $$conf{PASSWORD}; $seg .= ' ' x ($$conf{COLUMNS} - length($seg)); $dwh->addstr(0, 0, $seg); $dwh->attroff(A_BOLD); # Underline the field if no border is used $dwh->chgat(0, 0, $col, A_UNDERLINE, select_colour(@$conf{qw(FOREGROUND BACKGROUND)}), 0) unless $border; # Save the textstart, cursorpos, and value in case it was tweaked @$conf{qw(TEXTSTART CURSORPOS VALUE)} = ($ts, $pos, $value); } sub _cursor { my $self = shift; my $dwh = shift; my $conf = $self->{CONF}; # Display the cursor $dwh->chgat(0, $$conf{CURSORPOS} - $$conf{TEXTSTART}, 1, A_STANDOUT, select_colour(@$conf{qw(FOREGROUND BACKGROUND)}), 0) unless $$conf{READONLY}; # Restore the default settings $self->_restore($dwh); } sub input_key { # Process input a keystroke at a time. # # Usage: $self->input_key($key); my $self = shift; my $in = shift; my $conf = $self->{CONF}; my $mask = $$conf{MASK}; my ($value, $pos, $max, $ro) = @$conf{qw(VALUE CURSORPOS MAXLENGTH READONLY)}; my @string = split(//, $value); # Process special keys if ($in eq KEY_BACKSPACE) { return if $ro; if ($pos > 0) { splice(@string, $pos - 1, 1); $value = join('', @string); --$pos; } else { beep; } } elsif ($in eq KEY_RIGHT) { $pos < length($value) ? ++$pos : beep; } elsif ($in eq KEY_LEFT) { $pos > 0 ? --$pos : beep; } elsif ($in eq KEY_HOME) { $pos = 0; } elsif ($in eq KEY_END) { $pos = length($value); # Process other keys } else { return if $ro || $in !~ /^[[:print:]]$/; # Exit if it's a non-printing character return unless $in =~ /^[\w\W]$/; # Reject if we're already at the max length if (defined $max && length($value) == $max) { beep; return; # Append to the end if the cursor's at the end } elsif ($pos == length($value)) { $value .= $in; # Insert the character at the cursor's position } elsif ($pos > 0) { @string = (@string[0..($pos - 1)], $in, @string[$pos..$#string]); $value = join('', @string); # Insert the character at the beginning of the string } else { $value = "$in$value"; } # Increment the cursor's position ++$pos; } # Save the changes @$conf{qw(VALUE CURSORPOS)} = ($value, $pos); } 1; =head1 HISTORY =over =item 1999/12/29 -- Original text field widget in functional model =item 2001/07/05 -- First incarnation in OO architecture =back =head1 AUTHOR/COPYRIGHT (c) 2001 Arthur Corliss (corliss@digitalmages.com) =cut
